So I am trying to be crafty this year with some of my Christmas presents like several of my good friends. For several reasons it's more personal, cheaper (not that - that really matters - I just want to stay on a budget for once), and I just really just want to be a crafty person even though I am not so much. So my wonderful friend Sarah spend a whole afternoon emailing me ideas of things I could possibly make as gifts. One of the ones that she sent me was a t-shirt scarf that looked really cute in the pictures but of course when I tried to make it - not sure much. Oh well I guess I tried to be crafty this year that has to count for something, right? Who knows maybe my biggest critic my little sister will actually like it. If not at least I have a good back up plan a purse I know she will like it. I guess it is the thought that counts, right. I even made it in colors I know she will like - our high school colors WFHS and of course more importantly University of Arkansas colors. Stay tuned we will see if she actually likes it come Christmas. In the mean time I might try and actually make a few more for a couple of friends that I know will like it or at least lie to me and say they do.Saturday, December 18, 2010
Crafty or Not So Much in My Case
So I am trying to be crafty this year with some of my Christmas presents like several of my good friends.

Return to Blogging
So it has been over a year since I last posted on here, my last blog post was right before Poppi got sick and died and then I guess after that I just kind of forgot that I have a blog. So I am going to give this whole blogging thing another attempt - nothing crazy like blogging every day mainly b/c life is a little crazy at the moment between work and my out of control travel schedule. Most of my fall as been spent packing and unpacking since by the time Mid December gets here I will have traveled for 15 out of 16 weekends. But it has been a fun adventure but I have missed my life and friends in Dallas this fall - hopefully this spring will allow me to be in Dallas a little more. All that to say I don't have a ton of free time but I think I can post at least once a week - so that is the goal for now.
